Chapter 182 182. Plagiarism
The bell rang in the corridor, and the students in the classroom gathered up their textbooks and prepared to be taken by the class teacher to the school auditorium to watch the art performance.

Suddenly a figure rushed into the classroom, and the students in the class took a closer look, and it turned out to be Teacher Wu, the head teacher.

She asked anxiously, "Is there anyone in the class who can play the piano?! Other instruments are also fine!?"

Everyone looked at each other, not knowing what happened.

Then the class teacher answered everyone's question, "The class leader can't go on stage because of his health! Our class must find someone to stand up for it! Is there a classmate in the class? It doesn't matter if you don't play well, the important thing is to participate!"

Ning Qiu thought back to the days when she lived in Shen's house in her previous life.Borrowing from Shen Xinbao, I also studied piano for more than a year.Although it doesn't play well, it's barely passable.

Seeing Teacher Wu's anxious expression, Ning Qiu raised his hand unconsciously.

Teacher Wu immediately saw that hand raised up alone, as if seeing hope.

She walked over quickly in two or three steps, "You, you know how to play a musical instrument?!"

Ning Qiu nodded slowly, "Well, I have learned a little piano, but I can't play it well."

Teacher Wu excitedly pulled her up, "As long as you can, come with me!"

Being dragged by Teacher Wu all the way to the music classroom, Ning Qiu saw Huang Peipei's schoolbag and the sheet music on the piano, but there was no one there.

"Can you play this piece?" Teacher Wu asked, pointing to the music score of "The Sound of the Waves Still".

"Uh... no, I, I'm not very good at reading music either."

"It doesn't matter if you don't play this song, you just pick the one you can play, practice here first, and I will come and call you before you go on stage." After finishing speaking, Teacher Wu picked up the class monitor's schoolbag and left in a hurry, presumably to go I went to find Huang Peipei who was unwell.

Ning Qiu watched the head teacher leave, and only now regretted it.Why did you raise your hand just now?This is great, I'm going to make a fool of myself in front of hundreds of people.

Looking at the black and white keys, I tried to recall the days when I learned the piano in my previous life.

His fingers rested stiffly on the keys, trying to play the song 'Moon River' from memory.

Maybe it was too long ago, she couldn't remember all the melodies.He played a beautiful piece of music so fragmented that he couldn't hear the original tune at all.

It's really a joke to perform on stage like this.Ning Qiu is not only a little regretful now, she almost wants to run away.

Tried over and over again, but always couldn't enter the state.

With his fingers hitting the keys heavily, Ning Qiu stopped his futile practice.

She closed her eyes, recalling the songs that left a deep impression on her in her previous life.

It seems that there is indeed such a song, which came from the mouth of a delicate girl.

Ning Qiu met her in the prison, when they were the only two Chinese people in the prison.

Ning Qiu remembered that he was 38 years old when he met the girl, and the girl was only 19 years old.Flowers are the same age, but withered when they are about to bloom.

At that time, the girl was tortured by drugs, and she always hummed that song nervously whenever the drug addiction broke out.

At the beginning of the period, when listening to the girl singing, she would always see her crying. At that time, Ning Qiu thought that the crying was due to physical pain.

More than a year later, when the girl sang this song again, there was a smile on her face.

Ning Qiu will never forget that smile for the rest of her life. Despair and hope are entangled in the smile.She couldn't understand how these two diametrically opposed emotions could be fused together by the girl.

The girl died shortly afterward, dying of organ failure at the age of 20.

When thinking of that song again, Ning Qiu seemed to understand where the hope in that smile came from.It is the longing for the future in the lyrics and the courage to inspire people to fight.

Presumably her consciousness was already blurred at that time, and she constructed a dream for herself before she died.In the dream, she still has a future, and she can continue to work hard for it.

"Ning Qiu! Are you ready? It's your turn after three more performances!" The sudden voice brought Ning Qiu back from her memories.

"Oh, I can do it."

Gathering up her mood, Ning Qiu followed the teacher in charge and hurried to the backstage of the auditorium.

At the same time, a jeep stopped at the gate of the school, and a slender figure in a suit got out of the car.

He took off his sunglasses and looked at the campus of No. [-] Middle School with a charming smile on his lips.

"Is Ning Qiu ready!? You will be next!" Teacher Wu urged.

"All right!"

Ning Qiu came to the backcourt area on the side of the stage, ready to take the stage.

On the stage, more than a dozen girls from Class 5 of Senior Three performed the chorus of "My Motherland and Me". The girls in uniforms moved their upper bodies to the rhythm of the song, and seemed very emotional.The singing voice is ups and downs. Although it is an old song, it is really well sung.

After a song was sung, there was warm applause from the audience, which was the most enthusiastic applause after several programs.

The black curtain at the front desk was slowly pulled up, and the stage was quickly handed over.The girls trotted away from the stage, and an upright piano was pushed up by several people.

I heard the announcer in front of the curtain say, "The following is Ning Qiu, a student from Class 3, Senior Three, performing for everyone... Play and sing, everyone is welcome!"

Scattered applause came from the audience, and the curtain was slowly opened again.

Looking at the brightly illuminated stage, Ning Qiu suddenly became nervous.

Just as she was hesitating whether to run away immediately, she was suddenly pushed from behind, and she was exposed to the light unexpectedly.

A few chuckles came from under the stage. Although the sound was very small, Ning Qiu could hear it very clearly.

She clenched her fists, now she could get on the shelf or not, took a deep breath, raised her head and strode towards the piano in the center of the stage.

The huge light covered everything around, including Ning Qiu's uneasiness and uneasiness.

The moment Ning Qiu sat down in front of the piano, he closed his eyes, and the girl's smile appeared in his mind.Ning Qiu knew that the reason why he was so impressed by that smile was not because of the despair in the smile, but because of hope.

I can hear the girl singing softly again, "Where is the world full of flowers? If it really exists, then I will definitely go..."

The hand fell gently on the keys, it was a low and slightly depressing prelude.Then Ning Qiu sang in a plain tone, without embellishment, as if telling a story.

At this moment, she felt that she and the girl overlapped.The difference is that there is no despair in her songs, only full expectations for the future, and the courage and determination to realize her dreams.

In the climax of the song, the heart-piercing roaring style of singing is almost broken, but they are all tenaciously maintained on that syllable.Just like what is written in the lyrics, "As long as you have a breath, please hold your fists tightly. Before the sky breaks, we must be braver and wait for the most dazzling moment of sunrise." '

The moment the sound of the piano and singing disappeared, the school auditorium was silent.Everyone present seemed to have an illusion, as if the singing was still echoing in the auditorium.

Suddenly there was applause at the door of the auditorium, followed by more and more applause.In just a moment, the applause in the auditorium was like a huge wave, hitting the stage.

Ning Qiu came back to his senses, stood up neatly, and bowed to the auditorium.

The curtain was gradually closed, but there was still thunderous applause.

Only now did Ning Qiu feel guilty, belatedly, this could be considered plagiarism...
